SEND Support – Sharing Parenting

We run support groups for parents with children with SEND in Newmarket, Haverhill and Lakenheath.

Please contact info@sharingparenting.com for more information.

You may be interested in our Outside the Box Course. For details of the next course click HERE

These kinds of workshops can be sensitive if not delivered in the right way. I felt Suzanne had a wonderful way of delivering this with sensitivity whilst gently highlighting some things that may not be working in your parenting as well as being human and non-judgemental.
